Some very minor issues in -CURRENT: On boot, the cursor on the vga screen goes to home position. So if you have console=comconsole in loader.conf, the login prompt on the vga terminal is sort-of lost amidst the initial boot output. Also during shutdown the tty settings appear to be incorrect. I am getting the good old staircase effect (line feeds without carriage returns.) This applies to both serial and vga consoles. Cheers Michiel
